Time recognized those tweeters “who exemplify the very best wit and wisdom Twitter has to offer . . . (and) inspire us to laugh, learn or shake our heads in wonderment,” according to the magazine's website.

The magazine chose 140 Twitter feeds to represent the maximum number of 140 characters allowed in a tweet.

“We’ve compiled a list of Twitter feeds that stand out for their humor, knowledge and personality,” Time said on its website. “It’s not comprehensive -- there are more deserving tweeters than we can tally, and all honorees from previous years have been excluded. But like a good tweet, we’ve boiled down the issue to its essence: 140 feeds in 14 categories that you should follow right away.”

Every day, Hopkins treats his 748,131 and growing followers to such sweet tweets as "#DidYouKnow The most popular flavor of Jelly Bean is cherry 2nd is Buttered Popcorn” and “March 25 is International Waffle Day” and “People are like Oreos … The good stuff is on the inside.”

Upon learning of his inclusion on Time’s list, Hopkins tweeted: “Thanks @Techland for recognizing me on the @Time 140 best twitter accounts of 2013 I am so humbled #Twitter140.”
